Additional info: The output of "equery files vmware-modules" shows modules in
    /lib/modules/2.6.18-gentoo-r2-kosmanor/misc
but I'm actually booted into the "r4" kernel.  This in spite of the
fact that I was
running this kernel when I re-emerged them about an hour ago.  How do I get
them to install in the right place?

For now, I'm gonna just copy them.  Wish me luck.  I don't really
expect too much
to be different between r2 and r4.


No joy.  That did not work.  Help?
